This beautiful brooch represents a tradition of royal-theme jewelry that has a long history. It is generously sized and well-crafted, with stripes of red and blue enamel on an openwork figural crown plated in rich, bright gold-tone. It is set with 4 mm. and 2.5 mm. white glass faux pearls. The band of fleurs de lis around the brim suggests that this is a French crown. This piece is highly sculptural and has tremendous presence. It is unmarked, but of very high quality.
Measures 2 × 1-5/8 inches and rises 1/2 inch proud.
Excellent vintage condition.
